Technical wishbone

[Drinu]

HI guys,
just had a peep under the car and noticed that my front left and right wishbone are not of the same size. One is longer than the other by a few cm. Is this how it should be? Also, I noticed that one of my front wheels has a lot of negative camber. Is this normal as well?

My car is a Mk2 999cc 5 door.

Sorry! this prob rings a few bells, sounds like there are a few track control arms (johnny wishbones) i know this is the case with punto's and my old 309 gti, i was once sold an arm for a 205 gti and looked the part until i unbolted my old one and placed them next to each other and the 309 is an inch and half longer as sits 3 in wider than a 205, which is why peolple used to convert them to 309 spec, ring up or pop down to your local car spares and he'l get the parts book out, measure yours and go from there have a check on the rest of suspension while your there, esp track rod ends Ant!

This is odd. All Unos arms are the same AFAIK
